A THIRD person has been charged over the murder of drug dealer Michael Varehov.

An Aldgate woman, 29, appeared in Adelaide Magistrates Court yesterday. Mr Varehov's body was found in a shallow grave at Kuitpo Forest in June. A woman and a man - whose identities are suppressed - have also been charged over the murder.

They also appeared in court yesterday, during which prosecutors alleged police found pieces Mr Varehov's bloody scalp on a garage floor and bloody clothing in a washing machine at a house in Beaumont.

In the other hearing, a police prosecutor said the Aldgate woman lured the victim to the house, helped dispose of the body and helped destroy evidence.
